Make the business work better
Planning, costs, systems, research, tax administration and hands-on project support for owner-managed businesses.
Business supportPractical consultancy. Real progress.
Clear thinking.
Practical action.
Problems sorted.
I help owner-managed businesses and individuals cut through complexity, make sound decisions and get difficult work moving. Advice is useful. Action is better. I do both.
Where I add value
Support built around the problem, not a rigid package.
Some briefs are strategic. Some are administrative. Most need a blend of judgement, persistence and someone willing to take ownership.
Get difficult life admin under control
Benefits, housing, property, passports, visas, household costs and paperwork that cannot be ignored.
Personal supportTake the friction out of EU moves
Transfer of Residence preparation, client document collection and customs-ready files for removal companies.
Customs supportWhat clients bring me
When there is no neat box for the job.
I sit between the person who tells you what to do and the person who only completes a task. I work out the route, then help make it happen.
01
A business idea that needs testing
Pressure-test the numbers, demand, route to market, risks and next steps before you commit more time or money.
02
A company that feels harder to run than it should
Find wasted spend, unclear responsibilities, duplicated admin and weak processes, then set a workable improvement plan.
03
A project with too many moving parts
Coordinate people, documents, deadlines and decisions so property, licensing or business projects stop drifting.
04
Paperwork that needs a proper case
Turn scattered evidence and a complicated story into clear, complete applications, letters and supporting documents.
From first call to finish
A clear process. No theatre.
You will know what I am doing, what I need from you and what happens next.
Start with the issue
A free 15-minute conversation to understand the situation and whether I am the right fit.
Define the work
A written scope, expected outcome, fee and realistic timescale before anything starts.
Do the work
I analyse, organise, coordinate, draft or challenge—depending on what the brief requires.
Close it properly
A clear result, handover or next-step plan, with no loose ends left unexplained.
My standard is simple: straight answers, useful judgement and follow-through.
